How Our Roach Exterminators Can Help
Roaches are common pests that typically infest homes, hotels, medical clinics, and other commercial facilities with food sources. Cockroach outbreaks can result in significant economic losses, especially for hospitality businesses. That’s why hiring experienced roach exterminators is essential for effective removal.
At Bug Masters, we work closely with you to eliminate current roach problems and prevent future infestations. Our technicians will conduct a thorough inspection of your property. We will then create a treatment plan tailored to the specific species, ensuring safe and effective roach elimination.
American Cockroach Treatment
Due to their wings, American cockroaches are quick travelers and skilled fliers. They commonly inhabit outdoor areas like landscaped regions, sewers, and storm drains. Inside buildings, they prefer high-moisture areas. These pests often invade homes and gardens, where they feed on plants and decaying organic matter.
To eliminate seasonal roaches from commercial properties, we utilize a variety of exterior and non-invasive treatments. In spring and summer, we implement outer perimeter treatments for residential properties to prevent infestations. Roaches are not active in winter.
German Cockroach Treatment
German cockroaches are typically found in homes, apartments, restaurants, and other buildings where food is stored, prepared, or served. They eat all kinds of food and can proliferate quickly. Cockroaches often enter tightly constructed buildings through bottled drinks, potatoes, onions, dried pet food, grocery bags, furniture, and corrugated cardboard. They usually nest around the kitchen and bathroom near food and moisture.
The German cockroach, in particular, is immune to many toxins, making them one of the most difficult to remove. For commercial roach removal, we may use traps and bait stations (and sprays on rare occasions). For residential properties, our team will apply baits or targeted microinjection treatments.
Why You Need to Get Rid of Roaches Quickly
They say for every cockroach you see during the day, there could be hundreds more hiding. Cockroaches breed fast. Exterminating them quickly is the best way to take back control of your home or business and protect the people on your property.
Cockroach FAQs
What do roaches look like?
Common roaches in Arkansas include:
American Cockroach
- Reddish-brown
- Yellowish figure 8 pattern on the back of their heads
- Wings (about the same length as the body in the females and longer in the males, extending slightly beyond the abdomen)

Do roaches bite?
Cockroaches are unlikely to bite living humans as long as there are other food sources (such as exposed food or trash cans). There is a higher risk of roaches biting humans in cases of large infestations when food becomes limited.
What do roaches eat?
Cockroaches are scavengers that eat both plant and animal matter. While they prefer sweets, meats, and starches, they also eat other items such as hair, books, and decaying matter. Cockroaches can live weeks without water and months without food.
What attracts roaches?
Cockroaches are attracted to any property that provides them with their basic needs of food, water, and a place to live. They prefer dark and/or moist environments and are attracted to dirt and filth as a food source and clutter as a place to hide.
Things they are attracted to include:
- Dirty dishes
- Crumbs
- Leftover food in cans or containers
- Trash
- Pet food
- Excess moisture
- Cardboard
Where do roaches live?
Roaches thrive in dark, moist environments with access to food and water. Their favorite hiding spots include kitchens, grocery bags, delivery boxes, bathrooms, drains, laundry rooms, utility closets, electrical conduits, plumbing areas, and basements. During the day, they tuck themselves away in dark places like cracks, wall voids, beneath counters, and inside appliances.
What are the signs of a cockroach infestation?
Knowing you have roaches can be difficult because they are nocturnal and usually only appear at night. Apart from actually seeing a roach, signs you may have a roach infestation include:
- A strong, oily, or musty smell
- Shed skin
- Oval-shaped eggshells
- Smear marks on walls or cabinets
- Small droppings that look like pepper or coffee grounds
- Chew marks on food packages, books, and leather items
